Re: North Andover, Route 114 (1812 Turnpike Street)
Request for Determination
Dear Mr. Haight:
This is written in response to your inquiry on behalf of C&C Auto Corporation as to the
necessity of obtaining an access permit from this office for a proposed 5,000 square foot
6-bay auto repair facility and attached 12 seat pizza/sub shop restaurant at 1812 Turnpike
Street in North Andover.
After review and evaluation of the submitted materials including the plans titled"Site
Development Plan for Turnpike Automotive Repair" dated November 11, 2015 with a
revised date of January 27, 2016, a Traffic Memorandum by TEPP LLC, dated November
12, 2015 and the statement that no Massachusetts Environmental Policy Act (MEPA)
thresholds are met or exceeded by the proposed redevelopment, this office has
determined that no access permit is required for the considered work.
However, if the proposed project scope changes to include any work within the limits of
State Highway Route 114, an access permit will be required.
Please direct any questions relative to this correspondence to Michael Formichella,
District Maintenance Operations Engineer, at 781.641.8451.

working with Tim Willette (Water/Sewer)... he has signed the application and today we are j
coordinating with the Land owner to sign the application ... once the owner has signed we
will submit the app and the plan to MassDot...
